Publisher's Synopsis
General Metaphysics by John Patrick Noonan is a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental concepts and principles of metaphysics. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of reality, the relationship between mind and matter, the existence of God, and the nature of causation and time. Noonan draws on a variety of philosophical traditions, including Aristotelianism, Thomism, and contemporary analytic philosophy, to provide a clear and accessible introduction to the subject. The book is divided into three parts: the first provides an overview of the history of metaphysics and its key concepts, the second focuses on the nature of reality and the relationship between mind and matter, and the third explores the metaphysical implications of religious belief. Throughout the book, Noonan engages with a range of philosophical arguments and counterarguments, providing readers with a nuanced and sophisticated understanding of the subject. General Metaphysics is an essential resource for anyone interested in the nature of reality and the fundamental questions of existence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
